Hi, I just purchased a 2006 Avalon Limited. How can I reset the Avg MPG? I could not find any info in the users manual and seem to have tried everything. Thanks, Dave

My wife has had this occur a few times, I just washed off the engine, to make sure it was not from grime, we took it for a drive, and yes there is a faint burning plastic/rubber smell coming from around the exhaust, catalitic? area. any help would be grand thanks |

Replying to: branch15_5 (Mar 02, 2009 12:18 pm) sorry for the late response, I have not been here in a while. The $121 was for tsb0296-08, lube intermediate shaft. That did not work. They then did column assy, steering. I believe that this was tsb st002-06. The first time they did it 12/07, they said it would have been $450 plus labor which on the current job was $106. The second replace st002-06, 1/09 parts $695, labor $106. I had to pay the $121 for lube job, which did not help. Toyota picked up $695 for parts and dealer covered labor, $106 because I paid the $121 for failed lube job. Good luck.

Replying to: jim2006 (Apr 07, 2009 9:28 pm) If your Toyota dealer did TSB0296-08 for $121 you fared pretty well. I had the same TSB done last week at 63,000 miles. Parts were $25.85, labor $174.87 and misc/tax was $22.73 for a total of $223.45 because they said they would not cover it under warranty. My labor rate in Minneapolis may be higher than yours so $121 total still isn't bad. I hope it fixes my "clunk" permanently but if not I will see what they are willing to do. I will remember TSB002-06, 1/09 as the fix if the clunk returns. Do you have any correspondence from Toyota on this last fix, agreeing to provide parts free? |

As I walked the driveway this morning, I noticed a trail of oil up the driveway and right into the garage. When I looked at the floor under my 2006 Touring, I saw about a quart of oil on the floor. Had to tow it in and the dealer replaced the oil pipe sub assembly and gaskets under warranty. With only 35k miles, I guess I joined the others who have posted issues with major oil leaks with Avalons. Even found a video on You-Tube showing the problem. Amazing that the oil light never came on, even this AM when I had to move the car for the tow truck. |
